We provide Employee Assistance Programmes, delivering confidential and impartial advice, support and counselling to employees, helping reduce stress in the workplace, improving employee performance and building resilience in both individuals and teams.

We help organisations to ensure that staff are well supported through any difficult issues they may be facing. We specialise in supporting employees who have particularly challenging roles.

We work closely with you to develop employee care for your organisation, undertaking all aspects of planning, development, delivery and review.

We offer time-limited management solutions, deliver bespoke projects (e.g. working with specific teams/groups, providing support after incidents etc.) and undertake impact evaluation to measure how providing good support for your employees helps your business.

We deliver training in many aspects of supporting employees, including handling critical incidents, managing workplace stress, dealing with conflict and change and managing difficult issues in the workplace including mental health problems, substance misuse and bereavement.

We also train and support staff members to deliver bespoke training programmes that can be rolled out across your business.
